Thanks for response. Was your speedometer off once swapping to the 33s?

Happy Friday All Looking to confirm if my engine RPMs are higher than they should be on my 2004 3.3 with 5speed manual. My RPMs are at 2000 when only going at a speed of 40-45 in 5th gear. Of course they are even higher when on the interstate at 65. Tires on 16in rims are a little wider but...

Good to hear. I pulled the plenum on my 87 4runner and had a hell of a time. This engine is much cleaner with less miles so wont put up as much as a fight. No garage no need a good day of weather, also will try to get a better idea of the location before tearing down.

Thank you for the reply I will take a closer look when it stops raining here in Houston. Now what if is this area? Looks like no easy way to get to it due to such a tight fit. Thanks again View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i2tkhtN1ng

This morning I noticed antifreeze dripping from the cross frame where the engine and manual trans connect. I found the only video on you tube with a guy showing where the leak is on some deteriorating hoses and lines that he could see due to removing his trans for service. Is there any way to...

I was going to do Rhino flat black coating on my hood but a tree branch fell and put a dimple dent on the front left. Cannot get to it from underneath due to hood framing. Also have a few dents that were there when I bought in 2020. One on the back right fender behind gas door and the other is...

Here you go. Two of the X out in the Wyoming Campground before Yellowstone and then one of the geysers at Yellowstone. No photos of me zipping was afraid I was going to dropped my cell phone at 90 feet up. Lol

That of course is the million dollar question Kirk. As a replacement I'm not sure what I would get at this moment. Most likely it would have to be some type of smaller SUV even if I had to go for the dreaded Subaru size or Toyota RAV4. I'm just not taking advantage of driving off road the way I...

Was a good partial summer at zipline course. End of June I head Yellowstone park to work a job at old faithful then late sept I got called to work hurricane fiona in puerto rico, then ian in florida. The X spent 4.5 months in a storage unit in boise idaho.

Update. Finally got done working in florida for FEMA hurricane contract. Got back to Boise Feb 10th and was able to get free towing to a shop. As suspected it was the fuel pump. Costly fix. Between the pump and letting the shop do a synthetic oil change the cost out the door was $817. That...

Sorry for delay Kirk. I got transferred to real damage in fort meyers fl and been working 12 hr days. Thank you, I will be in diag mode once this work is over

Thanks. Once back the troubleshooting begins.

Will make some calls to see what some costs are.

OK I will let you know when they kick me out of florida once work is eventually completed. I have contacted several places near the storage place that had good diagnostic prices to hopefully quickly figure out the issue. I used up my free tow with Geico from where it broke down and they said...

Will do. Have done some excellent back woods tough to get to camp outs over the years, mostly in a 87 4runner I gave up in early 2020 replacing with the xterra. Fingers crossed its a cheap fix for the X which is in a storage facility in Boise near the airport until my work in florida ends. It...

Live in Tx but was working summer job in sun valley id.

Thank Kirk! will do.

Sorry for delays in response. Working many hours doing hurricane inspections for damaged homes in FL. No bucking or misfiring just the feel like running out of gas. At the time of the issue I did not check for sound from fuel pump due to being on a busy road. The X was towed directly to a...

Currently in Florida working for the hurricane cleanup but once done I will fly to Boise then drive down to Houston going thru Dallas to get there. Not sure of eta but will definitely see if they are still parting out. Thanks!

No check engine light came on. I thought about the fuel filter but there were no issues before the stall out. Maybe fuel pump?
